| What kind of bottle was it? I guess with Ruby's head type, it could
have been a coke bottle. ;^) I know, I know, now is not the time for
jokes. :^)

| wow....I can't believe it. When you think your house is as
kitty proof as it can possibly be...you hear another story.
Well I'm glad Ruby's okay...and Mom and Dad need to calm down
a bit!! It's one of these things that aren't funny when it
happens,,,,but you can look at it down the road and say "remember
when Ruby got her head stuck in the bottle".
What kind of bottle was it.....

| 4189.3 | Do you mean "bless it's pointed little head" Jo? | AKOCOA::FALLON | Isn't that a Mooncat? | Mon Nov 19 1990 14:08 | 8 |
| It was a dark brown old fashioned type of bottle. I would put dried
weeds or herbs in it for decoration. The hole had a diameter of about
1 1/2 to 2 inches. Thank you very much JO!! I just hope she doesn't
have aproblem for lack of oxygen and also we expected her to come into
heat again within the week. With our luck this will throw her out
AGAIN!!!!
feeling better now, and you're right "remember when.....8'}"

| 4189.5 | How horrible! | CSSE::MANDERSON | | Tue Nov 20 1990 08:56 | 14 |
| Oh Karen - what a horrible thing to have happen!
They find THE darndest things to get into, don't they?
I remember Otis getting his head caught between the rungs of our
dining room chairs and I freaked out. Thank GOD Tracey was there
(she twisted one of the rungs and pulled him out) because if it had
happened with just me there- poor Otis would have probably died
because I lost total control.
Hope all is well...and thank God Jimmy was there!

| this reminds me of the time I was awakened in the middle of the night by a
thumping sound right by my head...when I looked over, Nicholas (a kitten at
the time) had managed to get his head stuck in a box - a decorative box used
to cover kleenex boxes - and then, just as I looked he tumbled right off the
nightstand and somehow knocked the box off his head in the fall. I did laugh
at the sight of him with his head in the box, but I was concerned that he
might have worried his head so much that he could have caused swelling and
ended up stuck in the d*!*mned box -- which would certainly have required
heavy tranquilizer for Nick while we sawed the box off of him...and heavy
tranquilizer for me to endure it. Needless to say, the kleenex box cover
went in the garbage immediately. Any vaguely head-sized opening is fair
game and cats DO forget how to get back out of things....keep jars covered,
keep boxes covered or filled to the top AND BEWARE OF GLASSES THAT MAY
ALLOW A CAT TO GET HIS/HER HEAD STUCK. keep them in sight or safely put
away....never leave them sitting with just a little liquid of some kind
in the bottom. All four of mine are big on raiding the iced tea or water
in my glasses and they have almost stuck a few times.
